Audi managed to get three awards from the prestigious What Car? Contest at the Grosvenor House Hotel in London's Park Lane.

"Audi is on a roll at the moment, and it picks up a hat-trick of awards this year: last year's overall winner, the A1, is our favourite supermini, and the TT is still successful. It's been around for a while now, but it's still our favourite Coupé and Convertible.", commented Editor-in-Chief Chas Hallett.

The small A1 is named Supermini of the Year for the second time, which is a huge success considering the rivalry. OTR Prices for the A1 start at £13 420 for the 1.2 TFSI with 86PS SE model and rise to £21 810 for the mighty 1.4 TFSI 185PS Black Edition model.

Other very special car win award is the TT Coupe, which topped the Coupe category for the 6th consecutive time at the What Car? Awards. OTR Prices for the TT Coupe start at £24 070 for the 1.8 TFSI developing 160PS SE model and rise to £33 390 for the 2.0 TFSI 211 PS Quattro Black Edition model.

Last, but not least - TT Roadster scooped the award in Convertible of the Year category. OTR Prices for the TT Roadster start at £25 320 for the 1.8 TFSI - 160 PS Standard model and rise to £35 370 for the 2.0 TFSI 211 PS Quattro Black Edition model.

"I'm delighted to find that accepting three awards from What Car? is one of my first duties as Director. The A1 has had an incredible launch year and is now confirming its status as the star in its segment. The TT's unprecedented sixth award and its Roadster sister's first award from What Car? are testament to their timeless appeal.", commented Martin Sander, Director of Audi UK.
